Top reads: November 2020

It’s the last day of November and that means it’s time for some recommended reads from the members of our Top Reads team. Top Reads is a list of books nominated by the kids reading them. Every month (from February to November) we post the books our Top Reads Team loved reading during the preceding month.

Today’s post is the final Top Reads post for 2020. We hope you have a stack of great books to read over the summer holidays and we’ll be back with more recommended reading in 2021. Here are this month’s recommendations:

Top reads: October 2020

October this year included CBCA Book Week, (which is usually in August, but this year it was postponed a couple of months due to COVID). We’ve loved all the fabulous photos from families and schools dressing up as book characters and students putting their favourite books in the spotlight.

It’s the last day of the month and that means it’s time for members of our Top Reads Team* to share a list of their favourite books from the last 4 weeks. You’ll find most of them at your local library or favourite bookshop.
